>> Does the large file already exist  on the  server or is it created on the fly when the data is posted to the server?
>> - If the file already exists on the server i would create a little .php or .lc test script which just outputs/returns the file back when executed.

>>> My client has an on-rev.com-based training system. Training delivery is via web browser, and that part continues to work. But there are several desktop apps that provide training development, management and real-time monitoring. All of those apps became non-functional as soon as the upgrades were done, and remain so. I haven't been able to figure out how to restore functionality.
